  • the present invention relates to novel crystalline forms of anti Pneumocystis carinii compound (2-[4-(4-Chlorophenyl)cyclohexyl]-3-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone) commonly known as Atovaquone and methods for producing the same.
  • Pneumocystis carinii is a parasite, which has a natural habitat in lung tissue, in a host with normal immune system. Without treatment Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia is almost always fatal in immuncompromised host.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,981,874 discloses the process of preparation and the activity of the Atovaquone.
  • Polymorphs of Atovaquone are not reported yet.
  • the term ‘polymorphs’ is meant to include different physical forms, crystalline/liquid crystalline/amorphous forms.
  • Polymorphic studies have become very interesting and important as many active pharmaceutical ingredients exhibit polymorphism and some/one of the polymorphic form exhibit high bio-availability and also much better activity as compared to other polymorphs.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,981,874 discloses the recrystallization/purification of Atovaquone using solvent acetonitrile.
  • the polymorphic form obtained by this method is referred hereafter as Form I, characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern having peaks at about 7.2, 11.04, 11.77, 19.34, 21.14, 24.61, 25.28, 28.4 ⁇ 0.2 degrees.
